Bellabox March Review 2013

Today I received my March Bellabox 

 ~ Delicious Beauty ~




I was really happy with what I received this month, I didn't get any of the Clinique products that were handed out but everything I did get I will use and that means more to me than a another lipstick or mascara which I don't really need.  I am really excited to receive the Night Serum.

Ocean Essence Coconut Body Milk  20ml RRP$4.95 ~ firstly I am horrified that a tablespoon (yep that's all 20mls is) could cost $4.95, sorry but I'll be sticking to Pure Fiji for my coconut fix! Very mild coconut aroma but not particularly hydrating,  I really didn't find anything special about this lotion to justify the heavy price tag.

Designer Brands Lip Pencil full-size ~ Red Hot Red ~ RRP$4.99 ~ I don't have a lipliner in Red so I am very happy to receive this and it comes with a sharpener in the cap, very handy!

Yes to Carrots C Me Shine Lip Gloss full size ~ Carrot Kiss ~ RRP$9.95 ~ I love moisturising lip gloss and I love the Yes to range.  I would probably have been more excited about this if I had not recently purchased one from BB.  I think I will throw this in the Mini Spa bag I am making up for my Mum for Mother's Day.

Alpha H Liquid Gold Intensive Night Repair Serum full size 50ml RRP$99 ~ I am so excited to find this in my box this month.  Definitely a LUXE product and I can't wait to try it.  I use serums as part of my skincare routine and I am very curious to see how this performs.  This is what BB's card says about this product;

"Need a hardworking product to take the night shift for your skin?  This is it!  This night repair serum strengthens your skin's own defense, giving it a more uniform tone and texture while stimulating the cells natural renewal process."

My skin has been terrible lately (bloody hormones), I really look forward to trying this.

Simuolive Tebe Cleansing Face Polish ~ sample size ~ RRP$24.95 for 50ml ~ I exfoliate twice a week and look forward to trying this polish, teeny tiny sample so I think I will only get one use out of it but it should be enough to tell how good this is.  Contains Manuka Honey, Olive Leaf  Extracts, Sugar Cane acids and packed with anti-oxidants and Vitamin C.

Table of Plenty Hot or Cold Meusli ~ Bonus item ~  one sachet  ~ RRP$5.99 for a pack of 8 ~ made everything in the box smell really fruity and delicious, my husband snatched this away as soon as he saw it and is off to purchase some more for his breaky this week lol...........I may be lucky enough to try one if I can find where he's hidden them O_O

I love the card layout that BB provide, along with a description they put in there what kind of product it is, NATURAL, AFFORDABLE, CULT, LUXE, a little bit of everything, great idea.



Well done BB terrific sample box this month very very happy with everything I received.  Amazing to find a $99 Serum in there!!

  2. LOL your husband is so funny. I'm surprised at the value of the night repair serum! There is definitely a significant difference in the value of the boxes this month. I received a bottle of shampoo and conditioner AGAIN!!! I'm seriously fuming and planning to unsubscribe to Bellabox.

  3. He always hovers around when these boxes arrive hoping there is food in them, lol.... I ordered some nail polish and it came with a lolly pop and he took that too!!

    I know what you mean about the boxes, this is the first really good value box I have had in a while, I am always afraid if I unsubscribe I will miss out.

    I try to balance it through the year to see if it's worth it these days. That said I really like BB, they have great customer service and I love all the little extra samples they give you when you place an order, it's like getting another sample box.

  4. I got a Designer Brands eyeliner off a magazine I bought one time. So great to throw in my bag and never worry about it being blunt when I wanted to use it!
